Effect of Cervicothoracic Mobilization in Distal Radius Fractures after Plaster Removal
Journal Title: Journal of Novel Physiotherapy and Physical Rehabilitation - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: Distal Radius Fracture is one of the most common fractures in forearm. Chronic pain after these fractures could affect as much as 30% of patients. 22 to 39% incidence of Complex Regional pain Syndrome (CRPS) has been reported in patients with distal radius fractures. Spinal PA mobilization has generalized sympathoexcitatory effects, stimulate pain inhibitory descending pathways from Periaqueductal grey of brain and produce immediate hypoalgesia.
